Issue with dynamic range database


Listen to the whole thing before commenting .... especially the part where the poster says, "I know, because I mastered it."

I don't listen to vinyl, so I don't have first hand experience, so are the people who buy the vinyl because it's less compressed being fooled?

I do know that there is a lot of digital music that is overly compressed and limited, and that frequently digital remasters are.  What difference in DR numbers is significant?  2db, 3db or what?

TIA 
Ralph, sugabooger, The vinyl in the youtube video is not more dynamic than the CD, no doubt about it.. The TT meter does not work for vinyl. Is vinyl sometimes mastered with greater dynamic range than digital releases of the same album though? Many people believe that is the case.
